CINTAS CORP

Cintas Corporation helps over one million businesses, primarily in the United States, Canada, and Latin America, with products and services that enhance their image and maintain clean, safe facilities and employees. The company provides uniforms, mats, mops, shop towels, restroom supplies, workplace water services, first aid and safety products, eye-wash stations, safety training, fire extinguishers, sprinkler systems, and alarm testing. Cintas was founded in 1968 by Richard T. Farmer, initially focusing on uniform programs, and acquired his family's industrial laundry business in the early 1970s. Over time, Cintas expanded its offerings to complement its core uniform business. Cintas operates through two reportable operating segments: Uniform Rental and Facility Services, and First Aid and Safety Services. The Uniform Rental and Facility Services segment includes the rental and servicing of uniforms, other garments like flame resistant clothing, mats, mops, and shop towels, along with other ancillary items. This segment also encompasses restroom cleaning services and supplies, and the sale of catalog items to customers on route. The First Aid and Safety Services segment provides first aid and safety products and services, as well as workplace water services. The company's remaining business, comprising the Fire Protection Services and Uniform Direct Sale operating segments, is grouped under "All Other."
